Im trying to connect to devices in my BacNet IP gateway.  
i can connect to the gateway itself but cant connect to any other device in the tree.  
i can see all of the devices using Yabe .  
is there a way to connect to the other devices.  
Pics for my Config

You need to configure a BACnet device in Ignition for every device in the tree you want to connect to. You typically don't need a connection defined for the gateway device at all.

BACnet gateways basically just move traffic back and forth with a network you can't reach - you aren't actually browsing that device as if it were an aggregator. The YABE UI just makes it appear that way.

Could you please upload a screen shot of a configuration you've used that worked?  
(at least 2-3 devices)

Have you ever used that method with Samsung Bacnet DMS ?
